How to Do a Weekend in Toronto with Kids

If you know me, you know I work to travel. Back in July of 2018, we took our kids to Toronto and packed a ton into 48 short hours. I know traveling with kids can be overwhelming sometimes, so I’m sharing what we did with three young kids during our weekend away. When I’m not on trips, I’m planning them! So you can bet that a lot of thought and planning went into this little vacation.

Santa Barbara Dining Guide

Before we had children, one of my favorite evening activities was to sit with Brian and watch The Best Thing I Ever Ate on the Food Network. We loved listening to chefs talk about some of their favorite meals, and we dreamed of visiting some of those restaurants together.

Our summer escape to Camp Wandawega

Our kids currently go to preschool year-round. Every July they are off for one week and every July we go somewhere fun. The weather in Arkansas is brutally hot during this time, so traveling someplace a little less hot is always a big incentive, too. This past year, we traveled to Wisconsin and stayed at a lovely little place called Camp Wandawega.

Change of plans!

As most of you know by now, November is my annual planning month. I usually dedicate the entire month to planning ahead. However, I received a call I never expected to receive from someone I deeply admire in this industry, Holly Chapple. She invited my husband and me to her farm (Hope Flower Farm) and we immediately made babysitting arrangements for the kids and jumped on the next plane to Virginia. If you follow Holly on Instagram, then you totally know what to expect when meeting her ...
